Enabling ViewBinding on a gradle project that applies the "com.android.test" plugin breaks gradle configuration with a NullPointerException.

Tested in Android Studio 3.6-beta01 in new project, with a test module added.

Repro project attached. Extract and run
./gradlew build --stacktrace

Note my repro project has a <fragment> in main_activity.xml, but that was for reproducing another issue. Otherwise the repro is just a new project and new module created by the wizards, with library plugin changed to test plugin.

You should see the following output, indicating that it failed. I would expect it to succeed.
---
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':mylibrary'.
> java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)

* Try:
Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Exception is:
org.gradle.api.ProjectConfigurationException: A problem occurred configuring project ':mylibrary'.
